New Packed to the Rafters cast member Cameron Daddo has revealed that he is looking forward to being a "fresh face" on Australian television.

The actor and presenter hosted game show Perfect Match for two years in the late 1980s, but has also had acting roles in 24, The Mentalist, Golden Fiddles and Tracks of Glory. He said that he is excited to film a drama in his home country after years of living in Los Angeles.

Daddo told The Sunday Telegraph: "I've made no secret of the fact I've wanted to do drama in Australia for years. But if people think you're away, then you're out of sight, out of mind. Funny, because now I've been away so long I'm a fresh face again."

The 47-year-old makes his appearance as a newspaper editor on Packed to the Rafters this week (March 20). He is then scheduled to appear in Nine Network telemovie Beaconsfield and the stage production of Legally Blonde.
